Gillett, Arizona
Gillett, Arizona, is a ghost town, a stagecoach station, and then a settlement formed around an ore mill serving the Tip Top Mine, on the Agua Fria River in Yavapai County in what was then Arizona Territory.〔 It was named for the mining developer of the Tip Top Mine, spelled incorrectly as Gillette on U. S. Topographic Maps and elsewhere.〔John and Lillian Theobald, Arizona Territory Post Offices & Postmasters, The Arizona Historical Foundation, Phoenix, 1961〕 〔
Gillett was founded by the superintendent of the Tip Top Mine, where he located the mill to process the ore from Tip Top, 9 miles away.〔(Gillett, Arizona, Arizona Pioneer & Cemetery Research Project ) from apcrp.org website accessed February 28, 2015]〕 Its post office opened October 15 1878.〔 At its height in 1878 Gillett, had 6 streets and aside from its mill and post office, a bank, assay office, hotel, real estate office, livery stable, lumberyard, meat market, truck farm, dairy, warehouse, 2 blacksmiths, 2 stagecoach stations, 4 stores and 9 saloons or gambling houses.
After the mill was closed in 1880, and moved to Tip Top in 1884, the town was soon abandoned. It remained with a store and a stagecoach station in 1880 with a population of two.〔 Its post office had postmasters appointed up to October 1883, but it was discontinued in August of 1887.〔 The stage station remained until 1912, then was abandoned. 〔
The Burfind Hotel was the largest structure in Gillett and ruins of it and a neglected cemetery remain.〔
